Singer bathroom , also known as singing in the bathroom , singing in the bathroom , or singing in the bathroom , is a widespread phenomenon.
Many people sing in the bathroom because of the hard wall surfaces, often tiles or wood panels, and the lack of soft furnishings, creating a pleasant acoustic environment. Various reflections from the walls enrich the sound of a person's voice. The small dimensions and hard surfaces of a typical bathroom produce different types of standing waves, echoes and echoes, giving the sound "fullness and depth."
This habit is reported (with an explanation effort) centuries ago. For example, Ibn Khaldun in Chapter 1 of his book Muqaddimah writes:
Likewise, when those who enjoy a hot bath breathe the air from the baths, so that the heat of the air enters their spirits and makes them hot, they are found to be experiencing fun. It often happens that they start singing, because the singing comes from joy.
The bathroom singer is an ironic reference to a mediocre or amateur singer.
Jon Anderson has tiles mounted in the studio, to simulate the effects of a person's vocal echo in the bathroom.
This effect is not only used by singers. Paul Simon writes:
The main thing about playing guitar, is that I can sit alone and play and dream. And I am always happy to do that. I used to go in the bathroom, because the bathroom had tiles, so it was a little echo chamber. I'll turn on the faucet for running water - I like the sound, it's soothing for me - and I'll play. In the dark. 'Hello darkness, old friend/I'm coming to talk to you again.
